Rumour: Resident Evil 9 will be unlike any other game in the series and will be a franchise relaunch

Resident Evil fans are waiting for any news about the ninth part of the series, which, according to a Dusk Golem insider, will be a real franchise relaunch. Resident Evil 9 promises to bring the same revolutionary changes as Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 7.

Here's What We Know

Resident Evil 4 became a landmark game that introduced an over-the-shoulder camera, replacing the traditional fixed one that was characteristic of the series. Resident Evil 7 went even further, switching to a first-person perspective. Now Resident Evil 9 is preparing to repeat something similar, but in what direction remains a mystery.

Dusk Golem noted that the game will be a "bigger reimagining of the series" that will not be similar to previous parts, such as RE7 and RE8, or remakes. This means that the developers are experimenting with new mechanics and approaches that could redefine the series.

One of the possible directions for the development of Resident Evil 9 is an open world, as it was announced earlier. The game can take place on an island, which will create a large but limited space for exploration.

Although there is no official confirmation of Resident Evil 9 yet, insiders promise that the game will be announced this year.
